This kinda happened to me.

I got a promotion at work and had to go out of town for training. While out of town I got $100/day for food.

I went to Atlanta and had the cheapest lunch and the free hotel breakfast so I could go to expensive restaurants at night.

I don’t know much about cooking and chefs, but I like Richard Blaise from top chef was cool. I ate at his restaurant, I was the only one there and I got to meet him for a photo.

After watching 15 seasons of that show, Blaise is my bucket list chef to visit.

He’s great! Everyone who watches the show loves him.

My sister met Fabio once, he went to promote a restaurant that he is part owner of and she lives near it.

Spare-ribs from the 1st Römertopf reciept my wife found years ago, while she can eat them as well. Her taste changed after the chemos, she can't eat anything slightly spicy anymore.

A blooming onion, with a garlic sauce dip to start, battered catfish with fresh lemon juice, and waffle fries with a habañero garlic sauce for dipping as a main, and funnel cake with fresh raspberry sauce for dessert.

We don't deep fry at home at all, so that's the theme of my order.

My BIL makes out of this world ribs. That's it. That's all I would want on death row

The chicken tenderloins, breaded and lightly fried. Served with a side of sharp Dijon with a little honey for balance.

honestly i don't care for fancy food, just give some some grandma's home cooking and i'll be happier than any pro chef could make me.

"Oh my God. Turkey. With... pillowy mounds of mashed po-ta-toes, Butter-drenched dressing...And tiny onions! Swimming in a sea of cream sauce."

Takashi Saito, his choice. Damn near impossible to get a reservation, but I’d also like enough personal attention to ask for tips.

Dealer's choice as long as they like it and I've not had it before. I'd rather leave it to the chef's expertise.

This is an obnoxious answer, but Gordon Ramsay yells so much about everyone else getting Beef Wellington wrong, I’d like to have his Beef Wellington, but made by him under the exact same conditions where the contestants got it wrong, with no special privileges.

Call me Teddy, but I'll go with "the burger of the day".

Panna cotta. The pana cotta is the message.

I want Rick Bayless to make me a plate of beautiful Mexican food and sit and eat with me and tell what it was influenced by.

Or I want Eddie Huang to make either American or Thai food that was spicy and full of flavor while we discussed 90s-00s hip hop.

Based on Huangs World Eddie would just be a lot of laughs to spend time with for an evening.

I'll take the Neverending Pasta from Chef Melissa Rodriguez, thank you.

I’d want an excellent vegan copycat of my dad’s turkey meatloaf with mashed potatoes, corn spoon bread, and Brussels sprouts, but I would want to keep the meatloaf to have the most incredible sandwich the next day: a half size (20cm/8in long) ciabatta loaf, half of it spread with stone ground mustard (optional sharp cheddar sliced over the mustard side), then toasted, with slices of meatloaf browned and then assembled into a sandwich. Baby spinach optional.
